It was a simple mistake and those "orders" were not "honored" because it is not fair to sub holders for a few accidental orders to trump them getting their figures first. Our customers are a smart bunch

Can someone PM me the US number for Matty? I want to talk to someone who might has a clue of what is going on.

The early listing of September Snakemen and DB Skeletor on Mattycollector was clearly a mistake, but seems to speak to the persistent problems with Digital River. How does this occur and why not honor orders placed?

Since when does the definition of "not honored" mean "orders taken, completed and shipped out"?

Guess we all imagined those pictures posted by folks who thought they got their early orders in the mail?

and your point is? They are still using the Filmation version on artwork used on the MOTUC toyline. Why not art based on the vintage toy or an update of the vintage toy? It seems odd to me when they are going in a different direction with the possible new toy in classics...

... that the logo won't be around anymore when MOTUC Castle Grayskull comes out ? Besides CG wasn't even on the table when that logo was made ... they just threw together something quickly for the 30th.

Fortunately, if we get a Grayskull, we won't need more small diorama pieces.

Actually, I have a feeling the opposite will be true - I don't see it coming with that many accessories like that, to keep the price down. If Grayskull goes through, and 2014 goes through, I have a feeling we will see a couple of add-on items in 2014. I think there is a decent profit margin on these for them, more so than a figure.

I would love to see this. Depending on what they include (like the space suit the training spinner etc), there would be and still even if those are included would be a lot of possibilities. I am thinking that if Grayskull gets the green light (and probably even now in anticipation) that the Weapons Rack would and will sell quite well.

Mattel: We actually have not announced anything about 2014 at this point. It is still too early to comment.

Wait, they have not announced anything about 2014?? Oh, thank Procrustus, it was all just a bad dream. I had this horrible dream that Mattel told us that 2014 was not even certain to happen and then if it did, then it could only be 6-12 figures, or less. I am glad they have not really mentioned any information about 2014 and this was just my wild imagination.
